I think it’s the acronym for never mind. He must have found the other thread...

Most of the stores can order them and have them in a day or two. I’m about to get another one because the single can’t handle running my Lowrance while the motor is not running.

This....at the time I was wondering if stainless and tinned copper were compatible, but I found the answer

 

[Smackdaddy53]

I’m going to mount another one right next to this one and use a copper flat bar to link the terminals so I can run my GPS and a couple accessories...
I got my cables made up in custom lengths from this site-

yeah, I ordered some from them yesterday--their prices blow everyone out of the water.

Out of curiosity, why wouldnt you hook both of them up to a Perko switch?

$40 for more heavy battery cables or just link the batteries with $2 worth of copper flat bar...more Ah. I can rope start my outboard if I have to and it will charge the batteries back up in ten minutes.

I am currently using two 22 series AGM batteries. I downsized from 27 and 24 series due to weight. I am curious about how you are using the lithium batteries. Are they being used for starting or just to run electronics or other?

Thanks.

Copper flat bar will connect the batteries in parallel then?

One more idiotic question: I assume you bolt the terminal to the battery w/ a M6-1 bolt; are you backing this w/ a wingnut, nylock, nut/lockwasher or what? I'm playing hell finding these metric sizes in stainless

Ace hardware has a nice assortment of hardware as does true value.

I found stainless M6 phillips bolts at Lowe’s that fit great. I will use a lock washer.

If any of you guys find this battery at your local auto parts store I will pay for it online and pay you shipping if you mail it to me. Having a hard time locating another one! PM me
